The summer of 1981 saw skateparks throughout California, and all over the states, closing one by one. At this time Lance Mountain and many others thought the golden age of skateboarding was over. It was during this time that due to the shrinking numbers of pros the upcoming Lakewood Pro contest at was turned into a Pro-Am event and Lance’s then sponsor, Variflex, told him they were giving him a pro graphic.

This graphic has been brought back after 30-31 years (but who’s counting?) as a very limited edition anniversary deck, made exclusively for SoCal Skateshop by Flip and is based one of the sketches and prototype graphics that Lance came up with and skated in his last Amateur contest at Lakewood.

In honor of this graphic these boards were hand-screened and are available in black and blue, measuring in at: 9″ x 32.5″

Beginning at noon on Saturday the Flip team will be at the McBride Skatepark in Long Beach skating and hanging out. At 3pm everyone will be heading over to the Santa Ana Skatepark to round out the day with some more skating and high fives. There will be a best trick contest at both stops with $100.00 dollar CCS gift cards up for grabs. Both stops will also feature free pizza and prizes. If you live in SoCal be sure to make it out cause you don’t want to miss this. Check out the flyer below for more details…
